I am about 3 months out and scared to eat... all I eat is eggs all day for my Protein :/ anyone else struggle with this?


I've had and still do have moments of concern about eating. I'm afraid of dumping.

Dumping is more of an issue with the gastric bypass

What worries you about eating?

I'm not really sure.. like, what if I eat the wrong thing and get sick? Or I just eat the wrong thing.. I'm just scared and I want to continue this journey to a healthier me. I'm very bad ad knowing what is okay and what isn't at eating. So I stick to eggs. I had chicken which was so good but I don't want to get sick of it by eating so much so fast.
And I don't know what a "normal" day of eating looks like for other people.

Ambergene...I am on week 5 I've lost 23lbs...this is what I am eating now...

In the morning I start out hydrating and take my bariatric vitamins...after about 30 minutes I usually eat one scambled egg w/ cheese or I have 1/3 cup cottage cheese or Greek yogurt. I continue to hydrate with Water or Protein Shake or Jello or sf popcicles. At lunch I have tuna mixed with mayo or 3 oz chicken or fish. Continue hydrating...Dinner I have yogurt or chicken or fish or cottage cheese. Hope this was helpful

Would you share what you ate during your first three weeks post op? I'm struggling with this! I can't seem to get it together and I'm worried I'm over eating!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
